Comment on Are there any bots that we can use to mirror posts from subreddits?

There are whole instances dedicated to mirroring Reddit. However a lot of people on the fediverse oppose such features, on my home instance eg. lemmit is filtered out of /all stream. lemmit.online

Thanks. This is interesting, but it looks like all of the communities are locked and only the bot gets to post.
I’m also referring to something that just copies the posts, but doesn’t include the comments for either side.

You are right, this is a 1:1 mirror of Reddit without any Lemmy user interactions. Since it is a one way mirror, any comments would not reach Reddit, I assume this is why it was decided to keep the communities closed down in such a way.

If you want comments on such posts pick one and crosspost it to the relevant real community.
Nobody wants to comment on pure bot posts because you cannot get any replies from OP.
